On November 10, 2026, the European PIMCORE community will meet again in Frankfurt am Main for the second edition of the PIMCORE Community Dev Days (PCDD).

The event will focus on hands-on developer experiences, technical deep dives, and personal exchanges with core contributors and industry experts. Together, we’ll take a look at the future of PIMCORE Studio, modern Symfony and PHP architectures, and the impact of AI on the software development of tomorrow.

Whether you work with PIMCORE on a daily basis or follow the latest developments in the PHP ecosystem, the PCDD offers you new knowledge, fresh inspiration, and valuable connections that will last well beyond the event.

Please note: The Pimcore Partner Advisory Council will be taking place at the same venue at the same time. Since both events run all day, it is unfortunately not possible to attend both.

Here's what you can look forward to

  • In-depth, hands-on workshops on Pimcore, PHP, and modern Symfony development
  • Workshops on AI-powered development: Accelerating development without losing control
  • Practical insights directly from PIMCORE core developers, Symfony core developers, and leading PHP experts
  • 45-minute presentations with Q&A and discussion
  • Plenty of time for networking during extended coffee and lunch breaks
  • Coffee, tea, water, juices, non-alcoholic beverages, fresh fruit, granola bars, and savory snacks available all day
  • Lunch buffet including water and non-alcoholic beverages
  • Optional community event with speakers and attendees the evening before, featuring a dinner buffet (November 9, 2026)
